[ Little Ones ] Jasmine + Mike’s little Tristan

I blogged about Jasmine and Mike’s maternity session now I want to share with you “the bun that was inside the oven” πŸ™‚

It was Jasmines Birthday this day and Mike took her to lunch. Therefore, they left little Tristan in the loving care of Auntie Stephanie and Honorary Auntie’s Tiffany + Me .

While Mommy + Daddy were gone.. The Aunties had fun!!

Meet Baby Tristan! Isn’t he a cutie!!Looking forward to capturing Tristan as he grows up πŸ™‚

[ Little Ones ] Celine is 9 months!!

Do you remember Celine?

I first photographed her when she was only 3 weeks old! I have had the honor of documenting her first year and can’t believe see’s already 9 months. Β I am planning a huge post Β after her 1st year session in which I will show how she’s grown! You will not be disappointed! Tara and I already in talks Β ideas for theΒ next shoot. πŸ˜‰ So excited!!

This time around we decided to go Little Farm because they simply have the cutest pumpkin patch in Miami!

Here’s the little princess. I love her smirk!Back History: Since birth Celine has had many allergies that have at most times made her very uncomfortable. Her whole family has always tried to make her as comfortable as possible. As a photographer it as difficult to make her smile because of this. πŸ™ It always broke my heart when she shed a tear that was outside of all of our control. But, she is growing stronger and stronger everyday.

To see Celine Β REALLY smile this session made my heart melt. πŸ™‚

And she now has teeth!!!

Loveeee this one!This tractor was such a winner!! I already see these hanging on the wall πŸ˜‰Ohhh yeah do you see that fancy pacifier bling???

Go Tara, Go Tara!!This was my favorite part of the session. With minimal help Celine rode the pony ALL BY HERSELF! She loved every minute of it!Another fave!! πŸ™‚Shes not walking on her own YET! But I am sure she will be the next time I see her.

Much love to Tara and Raul for inviting me into their family and allowing me to be their “Photo Fairy”.

xoxo!

[ Little Ones ] Ever so cute Dominic

Sandy contacted me that she wanted to get Dominics 6 month session done before her favorite holiday — Halloween.

I arrived at their lovely home and with a huge smile on her face she said #dontjudgeme and she showed me Dominics homemade costume for the shoot.To her surprise I jumped up and down in total glee!! I love when parents really put and effort into making moments unique and memorable for their children. (Maybe its because I vow to be that way when I (if ever) get that maternal bug to have a little one of my own).

Who can resit a baby pumpkin?? Really now! πŸ™‚love.love.loveMom was having a little trouble with his shoe.. πŸ˜‰Dominic has a PIMPEST wardrobe i’ve seen on a 6 month old! He is ALWAYS decked out in Ralph Lauren! πŸ™‚I melted! πŸ™‚Costume change!! Enter the safari Caption: Mom I’m hot.

Feeding time for our little model. He was so hungry!Love this family!xoxo!

[Maternity Session] Jasmine + Michael

The best gift I can give my friends is capturing the special moments in their lives.

Jasmine is a really close friend and when I found out she was expecting I was ubber excited to be an honorary auntie. πŸ™‚ Β  Β  Β  Β ( I’m an honorary auntie to Sydney as well, Aly’s little girl.) Therefore, I seized the opportunity a couple of weeks ago to shoot Jasmine + Michael’s maternity session ( just one week before their due date).

I promise this is my favorite maternity session to date!!

Meet Jasmine + Michael

( a.k.a the cutest couple ever)

In her belly is baby Tristan. πŸ™‚Jasmine you are seriously beautiful! Like seriously! πŸ˜‰Hot Mama!These are totally real moments, real laughs.. well after Toya’s jokes of course πŸ˜‰

[Little Ones] Karim and Kelilah β€’ Miami, Florida

Meet Karim and Kelilah. Kelilah is truly Daddy’s Princess. He is putty in her small little hands. πŸ™‚

We met on a Sunday morning. I was excited for a daddy and me session.

Kelilah was extreamly shy at first. She looked at me with eyes ofΒ  “who are you lady and whats that funny thing your holding” but I knew she was bluffing.. πŸ˜‰ Slowly but surly she came around and next thing you know it we are best friends! Dad got a little jealous.. πŸ˜‰ he.he

O.M.G she was the cutest!She even let me steal her for a moment.. We went into the middle of the field and talked about this cute little dog walking along…

Dad was trying his hardest not to get wet.. But that was a #fail

Classic! πŸ™‚

xoxo!

Shout out to Tamika (Mom) she was there on the sidelines with us.. πŸ™‚
